Hello,
I have tried to add support for the lou_hyphenate function into my java
bindings, but I seem to only get the value 0 returned (IE. its failing
to complete). Unfortunately I don't know why it fails to complete. I am
using the en-us-g2.ctb translation table as I understand that the
en-GB-g2.ctb table isn't so well developed. I also tried passing in the
following string for translation table to see if specifying a
hyphenation dictionary would help "en-us-g2.ctb,hyph_en_US.dic" but
still no success.
I guess first thing to check is if I am using a suitable table. If not
what would be a correct value for trantab?
Also for those java developers what would be your preferred return type,
I plan to have it return a byte array with values as given by
lou_hyphenate in the hyphens parameter. An alternative I can think of is
to return a int array with each value being the index of a 1 value in
the hyphens parameter of lou_hyphenate (IE. by iterating over the return
value you would get each index of the beginning of a syllable, which
could be used on the string you passed into the method).
